Nice offset choice!! Could you fit a wider tire on that rim in the rear? How much did you have to shave from the rear well? Looks good!

Nice job. Looks good. How about taking a nice angle from the side at ground level?

Looks really clean. I was actually looking at those same ones except in black with polished lip.

Thanks Guys for all the kind words Thanks to Guessd and Chino for your valuble input Here's the side shots you wanted

I don't think you can go any wider than 285 on a 9.5, plus once you step up to 295 and such, then your looking at $$$.
I had to shave about 3/16 to 1/4 inch from the rear passenger lip liner, but the other side was okay, but shaved an 1/8 inch or so on that side for good measure!
The rims are more like $300 ea, not $200....it worked very well for my budget and for the use intended. Sorry about some of the shots, still trying to get used to this camera that I'm not very happy with

Good choice in wheels, love the thick 5 spokes

Are those gold exhaust tips?

Thanks for the compliment! Yes, those are gold tips. They come with the gold emblem package I guess, but I do have my eye on a set of Polished Stainless RMM exhaust, I hear that this is a good exhaust. I would like to turn up the rumble a bit

Beautiful car. Looks exactly like the '95 that Hurricane Katrina took from me. Replaced it with a '97 SC 400 (red)
